The students have gotten to the final stage of editing their green screen video! I may need to meet with them to touch up the editing, but I think this is the final project. Please include any suggestions that will help me guide them to make it better! Love the input!

Your actors were terrific. You must have had pretty even lighting on your green screen because the key came off really well. You might consider supporting text to underscore the anagram. If you use the graphic icon to upload instead of the paperclip, it will embed the video so it can be watched right here, without the need to download. Looking good!

What a great idea! The actors were great! I agree with Frank on using text/subtitles to convey the information that they're singing.

Your girls are wonderful! Too cute. Love the text idea that was suggested and was wondering if you took out the transitions at the end if it would flow more smoothly?

Nice job with the green screen! I didn't even notice it needing any touch ups. Towards the end, I lost some video/audio....wonder if that was the transitions JoAnn was talking about. I got lost there.

Fun idea and great chromakey use! An idea for future green screen projects: Clip your lapel mic transmitter to the ceiling (just push a tile up sightly) and let the mic dangle above your actors heads just off camera. I think that would give you better audio quality for anyone in front of the green screen.

Very cute! Possibly add transitions and light background music. Excellent green screen.

JoAnn - YES the end they insisted on chopping up between the girls to say "Lincoln Lions are the Best" and I'm wondering if/how to take out just those transitions.
The green screen was bulletin board paper from the office, and they cropped out the edges that didn't fit in the shot. There are seams in the paper, but I think it washed out with the background they picked.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions! Yea, something to work on with the girls.
